 Having had . httle surplus tune on hand since arriving bese lass week. your ! correspondent devoted | to an examina- tion of the operations ef the Walnut Grove Water Stosage Co. at the lower end of this valley. Your readers are aware. from previous statements of the fact that the company is building a dam at the head Of the twelve mile canyon of the HassayamPa, tor the purpose of turn- ing Wade's rsnch, and other adioipiug lands into an immense reservoir 10 store up water to be used tor mining and irri- g.tion on the Weaver and Antelope plains.
 Recently very important changes have been made in the plans of the company, according 10 which, ,te eapaei,y of the reservoir will be greatly enlarged. be- lieve the JouRNAL-MIsER in its last ref erence to the size of the dam, stated that the base was to be fo.ty feet ,bick, ard the dam eigtsy-ive feet high. Un- der The original plans the work was !sii out and carried on under the immediate supesvision of Prof Blake, aii the work being done directly for ,a- company by days work as the saying IS.
 The enlarged plans call tor base to the dam ct I74 feet in thickness, and a height Of no feet wbich will increase its holding capacity by millions ct gallons.
 Al ,he same time the company de- cided to finish the work by contract. as far as possible, and the change to that line was made this week. The man contrac, for the dam Is let to Messrs. Nsgle & Leonard, of San Francisco, . well known finn, to whom the company, through is officers here present, on the 18th int. turned over aii the working material. supplies, ttc., and then paid of all hands and the cook. Yesterday the new administration assumed control. and have commenced style of work in keeping with the new plans. The con- tractors hrough, in their own force of as- sistanss, boss carpenters. masons, en- gineers ard others, and under the new organization the work VIII bc crow- ded ahead. 4 new store IS being built 70 by 90 feet The eating house is doubled In size, and additional sleeping rooms made to accommodate twice the number of men TOW employed A com plete plant for An electric light is ordered, and as soon as it can te SC, up, work will go on night and day.

A correspondent writing from Brus-

concerning the condition of health of
The unfortunate ex-Empress Carlotta of
Mexico, who became insane after the
execution of her husband, Macmillan.
she is at present confined at the Cha
teau de Bouchot. The correspondent saw
he ex-Empress when she was walking
IN the gardens of the chateau. She was
accompanied by two ladies-in-waiting,
..er page and two footmen. The ladies'
'n-waiting, who belong to the Belgian
aristocracy, are some twelve in num-
Der. The ex-Empress, in her walk,
passed very near the correspondent,
and he was able to verify by actual
observation the reports as to the i'm
provement in her condition which have
been circulated during the past year.
He says that she is not changed much.
Her figure is slightly stouter, and she
walks in cold, impressive manner,
looking directly ahead, as if her atten-
ton was fixed on some distant object.
She walks with short steps and
without speaking. She passed through
groups of the most exquisite flowers
without showing the slightest notice,
but as she returned to the house
her cold face took on look Of pleasure
and satisfaction at the noisy welcome
given her by group of peacocks. She
looked at them for long time and
then turned abruptly into the drawing
room, where one Of the ladies-in-waiting
played for her an air from "Mignon.
She listened to this with pleasure, beat
| ing time with her hand. She talks .
little with those about her of dress,
music and of the incidents of the day,
indicating current Of ideas altogether
foreign to her condition year ago.
She is now forty-seven years of age.
Her physicians are beginning to have
hopes that she will recover within a
short time her full mental powers. =

prove Their Opportunities.
1t is always the LATEST man who
shrinks most from any expenditure of
time. He who is hard worker, and
who is hard worked, is readiest to take
whatever time is necessary for that
which he has to do-and he WiU find
the time. This shows itself in little
things as in larger. A lazy man finds
few lines quoted as from Tennyson or
Whittier in an editorial he is reading.
If he is unfamiliar with those lines,
and would like to locate them, he is
quite likely to write letter to the ed
itor, asking him to inform him by mail
or through the columns of his paper,
in which of the poets writings those
lines are to be found. A busy man, on
the other hand-especially if he have
the scholarly instinct-will, under such
circumstances, go through the entire
writings of the poet named, line by
line. if need be. in order to locate the
quotation. And similar difference
will show itself in the lazy man and
the Lusy one in every direction of re-
search or of other activity. A lazy
man is too lazy to use his time-even
when he wants to use it. A busy man
is too busy to neglect the right use OF
time-for whatever that time is needed.

The Momentous Importance of the Small

There would be fewer broken friend

the custom among intimate friends
and relations to neglect the small
courtesies of life, to show less and less
mutual Difference as they grow more
and more familiar. 1t is the founda-
ton of miseryin marriage, and many a
serious and lifelong estrangement has
begun, not from want of affection so
much as from lack of that delicate and
instructive appreciation of the feelings
of others which makes person shrink
from saying unpleasant things or find
ing fault, unless absolutely obliged, and
in any case to avoid wounding the Of
tenders sense of dignity or stirring up
within him feelings of opposition and
animosity; for although many per-
sons profess to be above tax

VOLUME XIII.

The next point for inspection was the
cabin. l went down alone, and in
two or three minutes was satisfied
that it had no occupants, living
or dead. There was no disorder
no sign of haste or plumber. / was
smiling the air as | moved about, and
! could detect no odor TO prove that an
epidemic had ragged. When went on
deck the brig was within speaking dis
lance, drifting at the same pace as the
schooner, and informed Captain Lam
sing of the state of affairs and sent the
boat to bring him over. When he
came we descended into the forecastle
and lighted the lamp. There was
plenty of oil in it, proving that some
hand had turned out the light in the
usual way. We then went to the
cabin. Every thing appeared as if the
officers had simply gone on deck, ex-
cept that there was not a single art l.
Gle of wearing apparel. This was like
wise true of the forecastle. We looked
for the schooner's log, but it was gone,
as was also her papers and charts. We
rummaged the cabin for half an hour,
but found nothing whatever to enlight-
en- us. Her name ought to have been
on the stern, but when the boat was
ordered to pull around her no name OF
We 3scl or port was found. 1t had not
been serapcd or painted out recently,
butas far as one could judge she had
not carried name for years. Then
we made search along the decks.
She had no small boats at all. Not
even an initial letter was painted or
stamped on any thing We sounded
the well, and found her dry as bone.
We pulled off the matches and found
her in sand ballast. She had plenty of
fresh water and provisions, and in the
cabin were six muskets and plenty of
ammunition.
Our inspection and investigation
lasted three hours. at the end of which
time we were no wiser than when we
began. Here was stanch, tight
schooner picked up in mid-ocean with
| all sail set. Those who had abandoned
ner HUI t.lkcil tHc utiloSI PicCoueiOh
| that she should not be identified, but
| for what reason we could not even con-
| lecture. Here was a lump of salvage
for us worth looking after, and Cap
tain Lansing determined to take her
to the islands. We hadn't an extra
man on the brig. Indeed, we were one
short of our complement. We had
| therefore decided to take tow line to
the brig and hang by her at least while
the weather was safe, and had begun
our preparations. when an "ox-eye" or
squat was seen gathering down in the
south, and we had to hurry aboard the
brig to make all snug. The squat hit
us fiercely, and lasted nearly half an
hour, and when we came out of it the
schooner had turned turtle within half
mile of us, and the prize had slipped
from our grasp.
Did you ever learn any thing further
about her? Not word, singular as it
may seem. The incident was published
in scores of papers, and called to the
attention of thousands of sailors, but
none of them was ever able to furnish
any true information. What do
think? Well, it was one of the mys-
teries, but no stranger than some
others have had hand in.-M Y
